Good point mytubedude532! Gees... However; see "more info" ... There was a jar of magnets & video tape I discovered about 2 weeks later... Thank you to remind of those things and for stopping by to comment! Kind regards...
...ahhh well with all respects; please don't place my mind anywhere (There's a huge vacuum where I think my mind is suppose to be!?) Best regards to your endeavors.
Would it be possible to provide further footage of sustained rotation, with the camera panning *much* further back?
This would better demonstrate that no other external magnetic influence is being applied to the rotating arm - particularly as it is seen to stall and then "re-start".
Thank you to ask of such a thing. Thing is; now, I don't even live there nor do I have any of those "motors" any more. It makes perfect sense what you ask too! I wish I had thought about it further at the time. It just didn't dawn on me to exploit the "jar of tape & magnets" coz it simply sat there. I just thought it noteworthy that the "compass" would not "compass" yet would turn without any electrical influence.Considering "panning back" I took the jar out of range so it wouldn't fail.
Simple as it looks...just a yogurt lid, coathanger, attraction poles for the suspended top, sticks & glue. Finally about two weeks later I moved a Jar (filled with magnets and stuffed with video tape) and discovered it was the cause effecting the "compass" The jar was about two feet away on a shelf. The compass would gain momentum on it's own until it would fail from it's crude imbalance. The jar of tape and various magnets was stationary.
you did not show under the table

So how exactly did you produce this what I call unstable situation?
